I know it probably has no meaning to you but you might want to think for a moment about the lives you are destroying in your quaint little town. You have destroyed the livelihood of many business owners, jobs of many of your own people and shown yourselves for the animals that you are. I have seen feral animals act with more understanding of right and wrong than I have seen from you. You have turned on your own and done it obviously quite willingly, you have destroyed any sense of community in favor of showing your true desire to destroy that which is not yours. You will be the first ones to complain when you have to pay for what you have done and most likely you will be the last ones to pitch in to rebuild what you have destroyed.

Such an inspirational breath of fresh air in the midst of all the ugliness going on in the world. I hope you find this a pause for you in the midst of it all and show you that life still goes on even if it is been deemed terminal. Thank you to Pink Tank Scuba for posting her dives!

Is every dive extraordinary? No. And yes. This question is like asking, is every day extraordinary? Or is every breath extraordinary? Of course they are.

Some days and dives and breaths are more memorable than others, for reasons both bad and good. But a dive is a dive. And a day is a day. And a breath is a breath. And all are limited in number, whether we have been forced to live daily with this knowledge or not. Every dive and breath and day – no matter how ordinary or challenging or underwhelming – is a precious and extraordinary blessing that should never be taken for granted.

I have always said that, for me, one minute underwater beats a year on land (which I suppose is a bold and bizarre statement from someone who has been told they have less than a year to live). By this definition…

MY SOAPBOX

I shared that I am blessed to be Nana to 10 beautiful grandchildren; one of which lives with Jesus! Each one is so precious in their own special way! I shared that I'm politically frustrated because I am a Conservative (former Republican) now The Constitution Party! I also share that I'm a frustrated Bible-believing Christian because I can't find a church that I'd want to go to if I could go to. I was spoiled by a pastor that taught as the Holy Spirit led him and then he left us and the church ended up closing its doors. I don't want to go to a church that 'plays' church by singing so many songs, then preaches for 20 minutes then offers EVERYONE to be born-again for 10 minutes. If the church is large enough, it will have to do this because of another service that's coming next. If its not, its because there is a football game on and the congregation will slowly disappear if the pastor preaches longer than the prescribed time.

I shared that I have been married 27 yrs this year. What I didn't say is that this man must be a saint to have stayed with me for 27 years! I have given him a lot of grief over the years (not that it hasn't been perfect on his end) he has definitely gotten the short end of the stick and now I'm disabled and he's stuck with that too! He does what he can to help me as best as he can. And he's doing a good job so far! (Maybe I should tell HIM that more often!) So that's just a little bit about me...
